Will chickens hatch under 100w heat lamp?

[XxCHICKEN07xX]

Hi, this is my first time hatching eggs and I am wondering if it is possible to hatch eggs under 100w heat lamp. The temperature has been reaching 100°f.

it can work, just make sure you keep some humidity on the eggs. it is best if the lamp does not point to the eggs.

OK thanks for your help and advice!

if you have a small Styrofoam cooler, you can use it to make an incubator. a small pan on the bottom with warm water in it. point the light toward the water, on the other end set your eggs, move the lid to control temperature. its very labor intensive but it will work.
